Tests done on every batch

Manufacturers determine the amount and types of testing done on raw ingredients. Nature’s Way goes above and beyond industry standards with extensive testing on every batch of ingredients before they even go into production.

Identification

Verifying each botanical genus, species, and plant part ensures your product contains the exact ingredient listed in the Supplement Facts panel and will support the benefit stated on the label. High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) testing provides a detailed chemical fingerprint of the ingredient for comparison against certified botanical reference standards. HPTLC testing is among the best, most reliable methods for authenticating raw materials.

Microbiological contaminants

Nature’s Way tests every ingredient for microbial contaminants that can break down ingredients, decrease potency, and degrade a product’s quality. Verifying that ingredients meet regulatory standards for microorganisms like bacteria, molds, and yeasts helps ensure a safe and compliant product.

Heavy metals

Every ingredient is tested to meet regulatory standards for heavy metals, including arsenic, cadmium, mercury, and lead. Testing for trace metal levels ensures ingredients comply with protective laws like California’s Proposition 65, and that the supplement won’t expose you to harmful levels of chemicals.

Tests performed periodically

Nature’s Way performs additional tests to ensure every supplier’s testing meets federal regulatory and our own high standards. Extra testing is especially critical for monitoring higher-risk botanicals.

Pesticides

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets safety limits, known as tolerances, for residual pesticides, and the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) requires botanical suppliers to comply. Nature’s Way verifies compliance with these tolerances through annual or periodic in-house testing of raw materials following the standards outlined in USP <561> to ensure safety and quality.

Aflatoxins

Aflatoxins are naturally occurring mycotoxins produced by specific mold and fungi species that grow on crops and botanicals, so it’s important to know your products are tested for them. Aflatoxin qualification testing at Nature’s Way ensures our suppliers’ testing is reliable and that the ingredients meet the required qualifications.

Psyllium Husk

The ingredient

Psyllium is part of the plantain family and is best known as a dietary fiber supplement. Because of its high mucilage content, it is also used as a thickener in food products.

Aflatoxins

Aflatoxins are naturally occurring toxins produced by specific mold and fungi species that grow on crops and botanicals, so it’s important to know your products are tested for them. While annual qualification verifies our suppliers’ aflatoxin testing for most ingredients, some raw materials are more susceptible, so Nature’s Way tests every single batch.

Tests performed periodically

Nature’s Way performs additional tests to ensure every supplier’s testing meets federal regulatory and our own high standards. Extra testing is especially critical for monitoring higher-risk botanicals.

Pesticides

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets safety limits, known as tolerances, for residual pesticides, and the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) requires botanical suppliers to comply. Nature’s Way verifies compliance with these tolerances through annual or periodic in-house testing of raw materials following the standards outlined in USP <561> to ensure safety and quality.

Heavy metals

Nature’s Way verifies suppliers' compliance with protective laws like California’s Proposition 65 on a periodic or annual basis. We do this to ensure the raw material meets regulatory standards and won’t expose you to harmful levels of heavy metals, including arsenic, cadmium, mercury, and lead.

Oat Hull Fiber

The ingredient

Also called an oat husk, oat hulls are the “casing” around an oat. They are generally ground into a fine powder and used as a dietary fiber for people and animals.

Guar Gum

The ingredient

Guar gum comes from guar beans and is used for its thickening properties. While guar beans are grown in various places, including the U.S., India is the largest producer. Guar gum is frequently used in food, including gluten-free flours, as well as in supplements.
